Enhanced photocatalytic degradation of 2-thiobenzimidazole by the tris(8-quinolinolato)cobalt(iii) complex through peroxide adduct formation: theoretical and experimental investigations

Abstract

HOMO–LUMO influenced photocatalytic degradation of 2-thiobenzimidazole through a thermodynamically favored route has been achieved by the cobalt(iii) Schiff base complex.

N-Heterocyclic Thione-Protected Ag4Tetrahedra and Ag8Cubes Cocrystallized in a Single Crystal

“…The solid-state 1 exhibits three absorption peaks at 244, 281, and 347 nm in the UV region (Figure S15). The bands centered at 244 and 281 nm are corresponding to the intraligand transitions of the 2-TBI ligand, , while another band is attributed to the mixture of ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) and Ag···Ag interactions . Furthermore, 1 shows broadband luminescence emission with a maximum peak at 544 nm upon excitation at 350 nm at room temperature (Figure S16).…”

Effect of metal ions in the electron-transfer mechanism on the photovoltaic performance of SALPHEN-based DSSC: experimental and theoretical studies

“…62 The coordination of water molecules with Fe(III) was confirmed by the FTIR signal at 600 cm À1 . 63 The appearance of a broad peak at around 2160-1978 cm À1 originated from the n[M-O] and n[M-N] vibrations as the characteristic of the metal coordination with the Schiff base ligand and confirms the involvement of the nitrogen and oxygen atoms of azomethine and phenolic (-OH) groups. Also, there was a red shift in the CQN stretching vibration, which was detected for the ligand at 1610 cm À1 and shifted to 1592 cm À1 for the complex due to a shift of the azomethine nitrogen lone pair density toward the metal ion during the coordination of the metal ion.…”
